Review mode
Select Review in the editor toolbar. The dashboard shows total manuscript word count, chapter or scene-length comparisons, character distribution, and an appearance heatmap. These views help locate unusually long chapters, missing characters, and sections that may need revision.
Good to know
- Charts describe the manuscript; they do not grade the quality of the writing.
- Character analysis depends on Codex entries and names found in chapter content.
- Use the heatmap sorting control to inspect appearances from different angles.
Read mode
Select Read to display the table of contents and every chapter in manuscript order. Use it for a continuity pass, to check titles and subtitles, and to see how front matter, body chapters, and end matter fit together.
